Focused ultrasound (FUS) combined with microbubbles is a promising technique for noninvasive, reversible, and spatially targeted blood-brain barrier opening, with clinical trials currently ongoing. Despite the fast development of this technology, there is a lack of established quality assurance (QA) strategies to ensure procedure consistency and safety. To address this challenge, this study presents the development and clinical evaluation of a passive acoustic detection-based QA protocol for FUS-induced blood-brain barrier opening (FUS-BBBO) procedure.
